Answer:

d = 771.3m

Explanation:

Let's first calculate the time of flight:

Yf = Yo+Voy*t-g*t^2/2  where Voy=0. Solving for t:

t = \sqrt{2*90/9.8} =4.285s

Now we calculate the horizontal displacement, wihch is the distance from the target to drop the package:

Xf = d = Vox*t

d = 180*4.285 = 771.3m

A car starts from rest and after 20 seconds it's velocity becomes 108km find the acceleration of the car
andre [41]

Answer:

1.5 km/s²

Explanation:

Given that:

a car starts from rest; it means the initial velocity (u) = 0 km/hr = 0 m/s

after time (t) = 20 seconds

the final velocity = 108 km/hr = 30 m/s

The acceleration (a) of the car can be determined by using the formula:

a = \dfrac{v-u}{t}

a = \dfrac{30\  m/s -0 \ m/s}{20 \ s}

a = \dfrac{30 \  m/s}{20 \ s}

a = 1.5 km/s²

You are retrieving your boat from the water. as a courtesy to others, when should you pull your boat into a launch lane?
OLga [1]
The best way to pull the boat in the launch lane is when the towing vehicle has reached the boat ramp as well as the trailer. It is best to retrieve the boat in this manner for it is more appropriate, convenient and it is a way of showing courtesy towards others because it is a proper manner.

An 8.0 cm object is 40.0 cm from a concave mirror that has a focal length of 10.0 cm. Its image is 16.0 cm in front of the mirro
svet-max [94.6K]
 We can rearrange the mirror equation before plugging our values in. 
1/p = 1/f - 1/q. 
1/p = 1/10cm - 1/40cm
1/p = 4/40cm - 1/40cm = 3/40cm
40cm=3p  <-- cross multiplication
13.33cm = p

Now that we have the value of p, we can plug it into the magnification equation.

M=-16/13.33=1.2
1.2=h'/8cm
9.6=h'

So the height of the image produced by the mirror is 9.6cm.

How does friction make it possible for you to walk across the floor?
Tema [17]

if we are walking on a perfectly smooth ground which has no friction our force would simply cancel out the force reverted by the ground and we would fall.

We need it to help push out feet off the ground

Hope those helps :)
